Journal publishing during the COVID-19 pandemic

The Society’s Editorial Office has always looked to be proactive in taking measures to support our editors, reviewers and authors - no matter what individual or collective issues they are facing - while trying to be fair to all parties involved in the publication of each article.

The Geographical Journal has been the academic journal of the Royal Geographical Society, under the terms of its Royal Charter, since 1893. It publishes original research papers, review articles, and commentaries from across the discipline, with particular reference to public debates, policy-orientated agendas and notions of 'relevance'.

Transactions publishes the very best scholarship from around the world and across the whole spectrum of geographical research. It publishes ‘landmark’ articles that make a substantial theoretical, conceptual or empirical contribution to the advancement of geographical understanding. Transactions papers stimulate and shape research agendas in human or physical geography, and/or showcase the contribution of geographical research to advancing knowledge within and beyond the discipline.

Geo is a fully open access international journal publishing research articles, review papers, data and digital humanities papers from across the spectrum of geographical and environmental research. It has a cross-disciplinary reach that spans the sciences, social sciences and humanities.

All articles published by Geo are fully open access: immediately freely available to read, download and share by all. To cover the cost of publishing, the journal charges an Article Publication Charge (APC). More information about APCs, waivers, and discounts is available via the journal's website.

WIREs Climate Change is a Wiley journal published in association with the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) and the Royal Meteorological Society. It provides an important forum to promote cross-disciplinary discussion of a global phenomenon with long-term societal impact.
